Error E:62.12 flashes on lcd screen

After I power on my sony cybershot an error message E:62.12 flashes on the lcd screen after about 10 seconds. How can I fix this?
I've tried resetting the camera to default setting
(Home: Main Setting: Initialize: Ok)
I've tried power off, shaking the camera, then power on.
I've tried removing the battery, power off for one minute, insert battery and power on.
I've tried changing and formatting memory sticks.
Please help.

If you have a computer with a memory card reader that takes the stick. insert it into the computer and goto my computer find the memory stick drive letter and format it their then retry the stick in the camera. also try to go into the cameras menu and try formatting it their if you cannot format the stick it is very possible it is bad.

there is no tools feature on the sony...select the 1st button lower right...all touch screen features appear...select menu in lower
left...select setup...camera 1 will display...select down arrow
twice until you reach format, the select...that should reformat
the memory...

I think I solve the problem wih my sony camera. After readin almost all posts on this problem I lost hope to save my photos from that "Format error" stick. So first I start to format the memory with the camera, after 5-6 minutes it says everything is formated. I restarted the camera but again there was a memory error message, but this time the blue screen has gone and I can see where lens are pinting. After that i start the format function again on my camera, but after a few seconds (just at the moment when it starts to format) i took put the batteries. When I put the batteries again the memory stick pro duo was empty. So I downloaded a program for memory restore (Rescover my Photos) Here is a link with program with C.. R... A.. C... K... http://www.2baksa.net/news/27705/So that program found all the pictures and the movies that were on that stick. You must take a deep scan to the memory and have a full battery life to take out the pictures. So, good luck.

In regards to your settings on your camera, I would suggest trying Auto first and then Mass Storage second. Auto in theory should detect the proper settings needed and adjust automatically. Mass Storage setting would treat the camera with your card like a flash (thumb drive) and would work also, however the software included with your camera will most likely work best with the auto setting. One quick question before we get too deep into this, is the card in your camera a brand new one or does it have pictures on it?

Hi!Try initializing the camera. Error 91 is a flash error in Sony cameras. It is probably a dead flash fuse on the motherboard (most common problem) or a faulty flash board. If you have a multimeter, I can help you locate and test the fuse and if you have a soldering iron - even fix it. My e-mail is toms.safranovs@gmail.com. Otherwise, you should contact your local Sony service center or other local camera service center.

I did a lot of troubleshooting to resolve this error. Here are some tips:

First, make sure the camera has fully charged battery. try to replace the memorystick if possible. If you dont have an extra memorystick, try borrowing one from friends and check if the error will appear. If it does it is a problem on the media.

You could also remove the battery for a few minutes and try again.

If will not work, set the unit in PLAY mode before turning it ON or
immediately right after you press the power. If it successfully gets
through the PLAY mode, initialize the settings and restart th camera.
You could initialize it by going to the menu and then setup.
